History

Who we are

From our roots in WA to becoming one of Australia’s fastest-growing power and communications infrastructure companies

Small beginnings.
Big ambitions

Genus was founded in Western Australia with a simple goal: deliver reliable infrastructure that powers communities, industries and economies across Australia.

Starting as a small powerlines business built on hard work and practical know-how, Genus quickly earned a reputation for reliability, problem solving and getting the job done safely, no matter how challenging the environment. That mindset still defines the 
business today.

From local player to national stage

As Australia’s infrastructure needs grew, so did Genus. Through strategic growth and the integration of specialist capabilities, the company expanded into a national provider of engineering, construction and maintenance services across 
the power, utilities and communications sectors.

From design to delivery,
and beyond

Today, Genus delivers end-to-end infrastructure solutions across transmission and distribution networks, renewable energy developments, communications infrastructure and essential utility services, from engineering and project delivery through to commissioning and long-term asset support.

Proudly powering what matters across Australia

Working alongside utilities, government agencies, renewable energy developers and major resource companies, Genus remains committed to proudly powering what matters, delivering the critical infrastructure that keeps communities connected, industries moving, and the nation’s energy future strong.
